Question about 216570 Owners Manual

Hello,

Finally just got a white 216570...

I notice that the 216570 Owners Manual does not contained picture of the 216570, instead it is the manual with pictures of 16570. so it seems like it is packaged with the older manual

Just curious if this is normal, or do I get the wrong booklet? If wrong booklet, is it possible to ask for the correct booklet to Rolex Service Center?

Thanks.

I've just checked mine and I have the new booklet with the 216570 on the front. Sounds like you have the old booklet. Did you purchase from an AD?

Is it a plain green cover, or does it show someone in a cave/underground?

You have the old booklet. The same thing happened to me and my TRF seller was able to get the new booklet from an AD.

I have the correct booklet for the 216570. Sounds like you got an old one but shouldn't be that hard to source.

where did you get the watch from?

Thanks, KevNev. I also found that some 216570 has some extra books (like the gold orange shown here), which I also do not receive.

is that correct?

That pic shows a full set with manual that you would/should get from an AD in the US.

My ExpII is automatic, so no manual.
